... and it's another BOY!

We had our 20 week ultrasound not too long ago and found our that our 4th and probably our last we be another boy. We are thrilled to even the numbers out. I am already giving away girl clothes as fast as they grow out of them.. The kids don't really care too much although Noah did think that this picture was hilarious.. ahh pee pee humor. Now we just have to think of names, which if you know us... is IMPOSSIBLE!! Noah told me the other day that his name is a dumb daddy name. I told him he can go by his middle name when he is older and then he asked if I would still be his mommy if he changed his last name... I didn't realize 4 yr olds were so concerned but reassured him I would still be his mommy if he changed his name to "Stinky Poopy Pants.." Hmmm wonder where the pee pee humor comes from... So, we are already getting opinions about their names and he not even in kindergarten yet!! You can see why it is so stressful to name them!

The Lake House












Noah got up waterskiing on his second try- and on the first try from then on. He looked so cute and little out there! I was so proud of him!! He waterskiied several times and got to be the one to show all his cousins how to do it. Of course it took until about the 3rd time until he actually smiled out there- but he would do it!






We got kind of cocky and decided to try Ellie out there. Two is a little young and her foot slipped out of the boot so here she is waterskiing in a half kneel position. She has such natural balance that she made it work and skiied like this for about 100 yards until we stopped the boat. Watch out next year!!









The little boys had a great time watching the daddies wakeboard and waterski and would cheer every time Colin jumped. It was really fun to watch them get so excited and it will be really interesting to look back at these pictures in like 10 years when the little boys are tearing it up out there and making the daddies look like old men. So anyway I will keep you posted!


Rowans Birthday!







We also celebrated Rowans first birthday and although she enjoys food more then my other children, she was surprisingly careful with her cake. Now if you hand her a cupcake, she even knows how to get the paper off of it- but at her party, it took a bit of convincing to even touch the cake. As you can see in the picture she has the spongebob teeth just like Noah and like mom did back in the day..

Now we are home and dying in the heat- it is September, what is the deal?? Noah has started soccer and scored three goals in his first game this season- so watch out!! Okay- in previewing this- I am not sure why the fonts are different sizes and why some are over the pictures- but I will figure it out!!!
